IN A recent video posted on his Facebook page, leading black religious figure, Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of Islam, has stated that Jesus will save him from the grip of death. This is in spite of the fact that the Nation of Islam proclaims Allah as God.

The 84 year-old was preaching to a large crowd when he said:

“I know. I’m not guessing that my Jesus is alive. I know that my redeemer liveth and because he lives I know that I, too, will pass through the portal of death yet death will not afflict me.”

Farrakhan has spoken about his reverence for Jesus Christ in previous messages.
